HB 1471 Washington House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Concerning budget stabilization account transfers.

HB 1471 transfers $1.63 billion from Washington's budget stabilization account to the state general fund to support critical health, welfare, and public safety services in fiscal year 2026. It requires the state treasurer to repay the full amount by transferring $816 million to the stabilization account on June 30, 2028, and another $816 million by June 30, 2029. The bill ensures these transfers do not disrupt future budget balancing requirements. This directly affects state service funding for all Washington residents during the 2026 fiscal year.
